Accidental Overachiever

I hope everyone had a wonderful Holiday season!

Even Charles was in the spirit!

I wanted to share some new books I acquired over the holiday with you, I’m very lucky to have a family that encourages my interests.

Me: I really don't wanna go to class tomorrow. Just one day won't hurt.

Also me: does all the homework, sets alarm, goes to bed early

Today I found this little guy on the floor outside my Anthro class. I didn't want him to get smushed so I decided to bring him home.

Color code everything!

Anthropology study time

Geology lab days 😍😍

Book haul!

The other day, my brother and I went to lunch on Main Street, and I absolutely had to stop at my favorite local bookstore.

Where I found these:

I already tore through Invitation to Anthropology, and I absolutely cannot wait to read The Human Odyssey!

I also went to the college bookstore and got 3/4 of my textbooks for the semester.

Needless to say, I am excited to dive into these babies.

Inspirational quote from my Dad

"Decide what you want

Aim for what you want

Then you just go, go, go!"

I thought I would share this little chart of Kinship diagram symbols from my cultural anthropology textbook.

Kind of want to make a little kinship diagram of my own using these.

The end of this week is going to be extra busy!

I am going on a mini vacation starting next week and I'm trying to cram 2 weeks worth into three days so I'm not missing out on my vacation to stay on top of classes.

This includes:

An Essay on The Great Gatsby

A quiz on The Great Gatsby

An Essy on an American Icon (I chose Neil DeGrasse Tyson)

A personal narrative essay

My second Anthro test

Three chapters of my Cultural Anthropology textbook

Creating survey and interview questions for my honors Anthro project

So needless to say I will be exhausted by the end of it, but it will be worth it when I have a worry and stress free vacation!

Overall today was a pretty good day!

I had orientation for my new job this morning! Afterwards, I cam home and read for a while before working on my personal narrative assignment. 

I’m almost done with all my assignments for the next two weeks so I can have a stress free vacation!
